B.Tech. in Mechatronics Engineering 

at KIIT School of Mechanical Engineering, Bhubaneswar

The BTech Mechatronics Engg. coursework includes foundational subjects, computer and electronics topics and advanced design courses. It is important to keep in mind that each university structures their curriculum a little bit differently. However, the foundational subjects include Calculus, Statistics, Algebra and Differential Equations, Properties of Electricity and Magnetism, Introductory Programming like Python, Java, and MATLAB.

Then, there are circuit courses for one to learn about resistors, inductor, active transistors, and capacitors. Without the knowledge of circuitry that actually gets the machine move, making a device is impossible. Students also get exposed to the essentials of Computer Organization and Networking, Digital Logic, etc. Mechanical and CAD, Circuitry, Programming and Digital Logic, and Physics, Math, and Algorithm Proficiency form the strong foundation of Mechatronics Engineering curriculum at the university level.

The BTech Mechatronics Engineering course syllabus does provide a pool of electives for you to opt for during the entire course curriculum of the Mechatronics course at the undergraduate level where you get the chance to pick a subject that interests you more and is easy-going for you. 
You can choose to pick a subject according to the particular career path and industry that you would like to enter into in the future. There are a variety of elective choices like Advanced Automation and Robotics, Mechatronic Systems and application, Process Automation, Communication Engineering, etc.

The B Tech in Mechatronics Engineering scope is quite promising given the interdisciplinary approach of the field where you get a combination of skills related to Mechanical, Electrical, and Computer Science Engineering. You turn out to be an asset for recruiters across industries and can explore some high-paying job profiles as given below:

• Mechatronics Engineer
• Robotics Engineer
• Automation Engineer
• Computer System Analyst
• Mechanical Engineer
• Control Systems Engineer
• Instrumentation Engineer
• Data Scientist

Mechatronics engineers with more inclination towards the mechanical field use CAD software paired with the mechanical know-how to carefully draft, simulate, and actualize every machine of today. The CAD simulates the 3-D model projects, enabling engineers to visually grasp their designs, collect it, and determine how the device reacts under various conditions and loads.

Mechatronics-Electrical engineers, on the other hand, look after the circuitry, where they design the electromagnetic conversions and highways that send signals to the robotic arms, for instance. They make the finalized circuit boards for a variety of electronic and mechanical devices. Mechatronics engineers who enter into the computer industry, look after the computer software systems and their overall working.

 Imagine the passion project come to life after going through the turbulent phases of design to being tested and getting the stamp of approval. Sounds quite exciting!
